New kid on the block

Post by TRUCKER »

Hey everyone my name is TRUCKER, y’all can figure out what I do for a living lol. I fell in love with shining when I was introduced many many years ago. When I was underaged. With that note I FULLY do not condone underage age drinking. Ok with all of the legality out of the way. I live on the east coast and we grown a lot of cranberries and blueberries so I have some great ideas for some spirits. As a gift from my sister she bought me one of those little stainless steel stills from Amazon. Yes I did my research in the state I live in so I’m all good. I look forward to throwing some ideas out there and looking at what people have for ideas. Keep on shinning everyone 🤙

Welcome Trucker!

Post a picture of your still. Some stills from Amazon need a little work. The folks on HD will help get it sorted out if it needs any sorting.

Welcome Trucker. Sounds like your sister got you a good gift. Lots to learn here, but those berries will make some great product.

Hi, TRUCKER, and welcome.

Just as an aside I think you will find that the laws in your country work the same as ours.
Whatever the state says is over-ridden by federal law.
